Connecticut became the fifth state to pass a consumer data privacy law with the signing of SB 6, titled “An Act Concerning Personal Data Privacy and Online Monitoring.” The law, which goes into effect July 1, 2023, is similar to privacy laws in Virginia, Colorado, and Utah, but it falls short of some of the provisions and protections in California’s California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and its update, the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA).
